"If the world were merely seductive, that would be easy. If it were merely challenging, that would be no problem. But I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day." — E.B. White

Firewood and Food


"There are two spiritual dangers in not owning a farm. One is the danger of supposing that breakfast comes from the grocery, and the other that heat comes from the furnace." 
~Aldo Leopold

Wishing you all an abundance of warmth n comfort during these "Polar vortex" days!
My weatherman kept saying he thought it sounded like the name of a new vodka... 
Use your potatoes as you will! ;-)

The good 'ol Polar Vortex! We are knee deep in it and are making the best of it but if it was a balmy 35 tomorrow I would not be sad. Stay warm!
